Celtics 2025-26 Regular Season Discussion

[slightly biased bias fan]

Bagley would be a great and cheap trade deadline acquisition. Averaging around 10/6 in about 18 minutes a game, and I think he'd be motivated on a playoff team like the C's. As a backup, he'd be great. And he doesn't make much so you could just do it for Tillman or Boucher (salary) + multiple second round picks probably. Keep Simons as that microwave scorer off the bench even after JT returns.

Bagley is terrible, even as a backup.

He cannot shoot, does not protect the rim, is a below average rebounder for his size and is a poor passer.

Celtics would be better off converting Williams from a two way player into a guaranteed roster spot.

Bagley seems like a low risk, high reward project. He?s just 26 years old and has career averages of 14 pts and 7 boards. I mean we turned Q and Garza into real serviceable bigs, what more a guy with lottery talent?

 I admit I haven't seen a ton of Bagley, but what I've seen has not impressed.  Hoping for a spark player, an energy rebounder, a solid BBIQ.  Bagley's stats are fine but he doesn't seem like a strong addition to me.
